    dont bother with age of empires 2,get age of empires 3 instead and get the expansion pack warchiefs if you can too,best game in the series,better graphics,AI is smarter and it has better units too,and a better campaign!:D

    Age Of Empires 2 Is Much Better Than Number 3

    i think 3 is far superior to two,so lets agree to disagree :D;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 159 ✭✭BENJAMIN61


    but the age of empires 2 campaigns are better than the one in number 3

    My version of AoEII stopped working when I upgraded to WinXP SP2 :mad:

    Loved that game!

    I would go for aoe2 if you prefer single player campaigns, the campaigns in aoe3 are entirely fictional, too short and not as fun

    But aoe3 is great for online play, good community and averages around 4000 players in the evening

    Does AoE 3 have a non-campaign single player versus multiple computer opponents game like AoE 2 had? You know the game type that had the random map generator?

    you mean a skirmish mode ya?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,399 ✭✭✭✭r3nu4l


    Yes! Thanks, I completely drew a blank yesterday! It was on the tip of my tongue but I couldn't get it! That was wrecking my head as I was typing it and also again last night :D Thanks, huge relief! :D

    So does it have a skirmish mode?

    AoE3 has skirmish aye, but the AI is just as bad as in 2.

    Much Prefare AoC (AoE2 and Expansion) over the rest of them, such a great multiplayer game, have spent many a night in the wee hours playing that with a few friends, didnt really enjoy AoE3 much apart from modding the absolute b*llocks off it, in the end most of my game had been modded in some way or another. Although back when I was doing it you couldnt get custom models, but I've been out of the scene for a long time so I don't know if they found a way around that one yet.
